Its wide, golden sands and clear blue waters make it a perfect place for swimming, sunbathing, and surfing. One of the unique things about Noosa Main Beach is the fact that it faces north.

It’s one of our favourite places to have a glass of wine in Noosa because they stock my favourite wine – Shaw + Smith Sauvignon Blanc.

Habitat Noosa and the Everglades tour is a must-visit for those interested in nature and wildlife. The tour takes visitors deep into the heart of the Everglades, where they can see a range of unique plants and animals, as well as learn about the area's rich history and culture. One of the special things about the everglades is that it is one of only two everglade systems in the world.  The water in the everglades is almost pitch black and shiny to look at.  That is because of the tannins from the tea trees.  The shiny still water provides for some great reflective photo opportunities.  You can do the serenity tour which is a relaxing three hour boat ride through the everglades or do a morning tour which includes a 5km canoe ride.  You can finish the tour with a delicious cold craft beer made on the premises at the CootharaBAR restaurant.

Noosa is also home to a range of exciting events throughout the year, including the Noosa Food & Wine Festival, the Noosa Triathlon, and the Noosa Jazz Festival. To learn more about Noosa and the surrounding area, visit https://www.visitnoosa.com.au/.
